Getting hiv from people that bleeding
Hi, I have helping a person who involve in motorcycle accident. His hand is bleeding and i help to pull him up that time. my hand, arm & shirt contacted some of his blood . I don't know his status, Will i get infected by hiv? do i need to get tested? i am really worried now.
I was not involve in this accident also . I was just helping him and some blood come contact with me .
You cannot get HIV by coming in contact with someone's blood. Not unless you had a gaping, hemorrhaging wound yourself. Even with cuts, scrapes...still no risk.
NO testing needed.
